Question

Based on the English alphabetical order, three of the following four letter-clusters are alike in a certain way and thus form a group. Which letter-cluster DOES NOT belong to that group? (Note: The odd one out is not based on the number of consonants/vowels or their position in the letter-cluster.)

• A. ACE
• B. BDF
• C. GIK
• D. DGB

Answer 1

Answer:

D. DGB

Check the pattern in each group:

ACE

A(1) → C(3) → E(5) → +2, +2

BDF

B(2) → D(4) → F(6) → +2, +2

GIK

G(7) → I(9) → K(11) → +2, +2

DGB

D(4) → G(7) → B(2) → +3, −5 (not consistent)

Final Answer:

DGB (odd one out)
